Fetal Heart Echocardiography: Ventricular Septal Defect
2015A 32-year-old woman was referred to us for fetal heart echocardiography. Her first child was 9 years old and completely healthy. She was at 35 weeks of pregnancy, and all her screening tests were normal.

Congenital Heart Surgery Nomenclature and Database Project: ventricular septal defect
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2000The extant nomenclature for ventricular septal defect (VSD) is reviewed for the purpose of establishing a unified reporting system. The subject was debated and reviewed by members of the STS-Congenital Heart Surgery Database Committee and representatives from the European Association for Cardiothoracic Surgery.

Nature of heart failure in patients with ventricular septal defect
American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1995To assess the contributions of systolic and diastolic dysfunction to congestive heart failure (CHF) in ventricular septal defect (VSD), we studied 13 children with VSD at catheterization using a Millar catheter. Eight children had CHF, whereas five did not. Phenylephrine was infused at a rate of 5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1, and M-mode echocardiography and

Repair of postinfarction ventricular septal defect on a beating heart
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1996Two elderly patients with postinfarction ventricular septal defect underwent repair by endocardial patch with infarct exclusion on a beating heart under normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass with ultra-short-acting beta-blocker infusion. Their hemodynamic states soon recovered, and postoperative angiographic studies showed improvement of cardiac function

Recatheterization of the right heart in ventricular septal defect
American Heart Journal, 1959Abstract Repeat right heart catheterization was carried out in 20 patients from 17 months to 9 years following the initial study. In only a few patients was there an increase in pulmonary pressure. In some infants there was a significant fall. No deterioration in clinical signs or symptoms occurred. In view of these data it is suggested that one be

The Conduction System in Cattle Hearts with Ventricular Septal Defects
Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 1983AbstractAn anatomical study of abattoir acquired bovine hearts with ventricular septal defects was carried out. Hearts were fixed and stored in 4% formalin solution with heart dissection used for gross anatomical location of the conduction system of the ventricles.

Ventricular Wall Stress and Pump Function of Ventricular Septal Defect of Congenital Heart Defects
ASME 2009 Summer Bioengineering Conference, Parts A and B, 2009About 36,000 infants are born each year with a congenital heart defect (CHD) and charges for treatment surpass $2.2 billion for inpatient surgery alone. Of many different types of CHDs, ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the most common class (∼1/3 of CHDs) of heart deformity present at birth.

Closure of membranous ventricular septal defect of heart by septal leaflet of tricuspid valve
Human Pathology, 1983A case of spontaneous closure of a membranous ventricular septal defect by adhesion of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve is reported. There was evidence to suggest that thrombi developed in a pouch formed by the adherent leaflet, giving rise to emboli producing remote and recent infarcts in the brain.

Ventricular Septal Defect Closure in Taussig-Bing Heart: The “Pulmonic Rule”
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2009Accurate ventricular septal defect patch sizing and tailoring remain challenging in many surgical procedures. Surgical exposure frequently limits complete visualization of the ventricular septal defect. Moreover, examination of the heart cavity under cardioplegic arrest may lead to skewed appreciation of the ventricular septal defect caliber and shape.
